The context switch code in the kernel issues a dummy stwcx. to clear the reservation, as recommended by the architecture. However, some processors can have issues if this stwcx to address A occurs while the reservation is already held to a different address B. To avoid this problem, the dummy stwcx. needs to be paired with a dummy lwarx to the same address. This adds the dummy lwarx, and creates a cpu feature bit to indicate which cpus are affected. Tested on mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig in arch/powerpc; build tested in arch/ppc. Signed-off-by: Becky Bruce <becky.bruce@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

Add documentation in Kconfig help about the move of /proc/acpi/battery to /sys/class/power_supply when selecting ACPI_PROCFS. This will impact a lot of users and should be documented. Signed-off-by: Jerome Pinot <ngc891@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Oops. The current code does not like being given an u16 with the highest bit set as an argument to mdio_write. Let's enforce a correct range of values for both the register address and value (resp. 5 and 16 bits). The callers are currently left as-is.

The link state machine requires access to some resources that are shared with the iSCSI function on the chip. (See iSCSI driver at drivers/scsi/qla4xxx) If the interface is being up/downed at a rapid pace this driver may need to sleep waiting to get access to the common resources. For this we are moving the state machine to run as a work thread. Signed-off-by: Ron Mercer <ron.mercer@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

The standard validate_addr handler refuses to accept the all zeroes address as valid. However, it's common historical practice for the bonding master to be configured up prior to having any slaves, at which time the master will have a MAC address of all zeroes. Resolved by setting the dev->validate_addr to NULL. The master still can't end up with an invalid address, as the set_mac_address function tests for validity.

Looks like I incorrectly merged one of the rtnl lock changes, so that one function, bonding_show_active_slave, held rtnl but didn't release it, and another, bonding_store_active_slave, never held rtnl but did release it. Fixed so the first function doesn't mess with rtnl, and the second correctly acquires and releases rtnl.

Fix an IRQ race condition in b43legacy. If we call b43legacy_wireless_core_stop(), it will set the status of the device to INITIALIZED and the IRQ handler won't care any longer about IRQs, thus the kernel will disable the IRQ if it's shared (unless we boot it with the 'irqpoll' option). So we must disable IRQs before changing the device status. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <stefano.brivio@polimi.it> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
